Do you constantly second-guess yourself while interacting with senior-level leaders?
If you've ever been in a meeting with your boss and felt the overwhelming urge to ask "Are you sure that's what you want me to do?", then you're not alone. Second-guessing yourself is a common habit, especially for people who are new to interacting with senior-level leaders. After all, these are the people who make the decisions that can determine the success or failure of your career. So it's natural to want to make sure that you're doing everything right.

Are you hesitant to make a move in the company to get the position you want because you aren't sure what path will get you to your destination faster?
If you're feeling stuck in your career, you're not alone. Many people find themselves at a crossroads at some point, wondering which way to go. Should you stay put and hope that your hard work will eventually be rewarded? Or should you make a move and try to actively advance your career? But here's the thing, once you have a clear goal in mind, it will be easier to decide which path to take. So if you're feeling stuck, remember that there are always options available. And through this program, we'll work together what that looks like for you.

Do you want to feel less guilty creating work boundaries?
Let's face it, we all have our guilty pleasures. For some of us, it's spending a little too much time scrolling through social media. For others, it's binge-watching our favorite TV show. But when it comes to work, guilt is often the name of the game. We feel guilty when we take a sick day, when we ask for a raise, and even when we take a vacation. So how can we break free from the guilt and create healthy boundaries at work?

Are you tired of being on a passion-less hamsterwheel?
It's not uncommon to feel like you're stuck in a rut, both in your personal and professional life. You might find yourself going through the motions day after day, without any real sense of purpose or passion. If that sounds familiar, it's important to remember that it's never too late to make a change. Life is too short to spend your time doing something that doesn't make you happy. So ask yourself: what is it that you really want to be doing?

Are you tired of navigating politics in the workplace?
If you're tired of kissing up to the boss and brown-nosing your way to the top, then you're not alone. Office politics can be frustrating, and it can be hard to know how to get ahead without selling your soul. But there are some things you can do to make the game a little easier (and build influence while you're doing it).
The good news? It's never too late to create the job that YOU want without compromising who you are.

I created an exclusive, powerful, and modern program that will help step into your fullest potential and create a roadmap for the long-term impact you crave.

Your Accordion Heading Goes Here
You are done with just working hard. You have ideas and passion. You want a seat and voice at the table. It’s time for you to take your experience and become a more influential player in the company, where you can feel like you’re delivering value every. single. day.
It’s also critical that you continue to be intellectually challenged. You’ve realized that you’re only at your best when you’re continually learning and figuring out shit that you (or others) ever thought you could.
You desperately want to do all this while also maintaining harmony with your kids, life partner, friends and family. And let’s be clear - you don’t want or need lackadaisical. You just need some damn breathing room from time to time!
And ultimately you want to feel the freedom that comes with financial success. At the same time, you’re unwilling to live a life that doesn’t explore – and pursue – the ultimate purpose that you were put on this earth to do.
So you might be asking, where the hell do I start?
I’ve combined my experience as a corporate executive + someone 100% following her life’s work (+ two years of coaching others to success) to come up with the ultimate program…
I'd love to meet you to ensure you are a good fit for this program. Please schedule a call below.

You think more hard work = more success.
The truth is that working harder is actually what prevents most people from getting the big jobs. The truth is that hard work is easy to come by. It’s leadership, vision and other traits that are critical to getting to the next level.
You’re surrounded by assholes & they’re holding you back.
Newsflash – there are assholes everywhere. And it’s all just part of the fun game. But you can’t fight fire with fire. Instead, you need a new mindset and playbook for dealing with and fighting through these fun people. Without it, you’re going to stay stuck.
You think you have to compromise one thing for the other.
Unfortunately, you’ve been conditioned to think that there’s an anticorrelation between our career and everything else. Take a bigger job, give up more at home. That may be the case if you keep following the crusty, circa-1990 career playbook. But with a new playbook - with authenticity as your secret weapon – your entire career graph tips.
You think there’s always one right next move.
Man, this one paralyzes so many people. You feel like you’ve gotta figure out that right, one next move. But the reality is that there isn’t one right move. But there are key things you want to think about checking off with each move. Top of that list? Getting uncomfortable.

I used to be you.
Hi, I’m Erin Hatzikostas – friend, mom, boss and career coach – all rolled into one. I became a corporate CEO at the age of 42. But it wasn’t easy.
I spent over 20 years in the corporate world, bobbing and weaving my way into a CEO position. After literally failing at my first career as an aspiring Actuary, I started to do things differently.
I realized that instead of following the traditional rules - network, lean-in, have executive presence, blah blah - I could do things differently. I could focus more on standing out than stressing out.
In just four years I was promoted from Director to Sr. Director to Executive Director to CEO. I tripled my annual income and became the CEO of a healthcare financial company with 1,000 employees and $2 billion in financial assets.
And then, plot twist, when it all was going great (on paper anyway) I found and followed a long-term path that has me following my true purpose in life.
After realizing it wasn’t luck that kept producing my success, I put a “formula” to what I’d figured out.
With authenticity being the river that run-ith through-ith...

I had been following Erin and listening to their podcasts. I decided to finally stick my neck out and work with her. I knew I needed to shake things up. After our first deep-dive session, she helped me refine my message down to the essence of who I am and what I’ve accomplished. About a week later I got a job offer from a company I was dying to work with. I went from feeling like my back was against the wall to feeling on top of the world in just a few weeks. Erin's coaching is incredibly gritty, honest, and heartfelt. The best part is knowing Erin has my back and believes in me, which is so impactful and meaningful.
We can do great things, together!
Look, I'm going to be frank here. I have a superpower: when I’m able to work with people, magical things happen. I left my fancy, fun and lucrative career for a reason. I want to help others – I want to help you – have the same (or more) success I had.
It breaks my heart that so many amazing people aren’t the ones climbing the corporate ladder. Too often, it’s the same old, middle-aged “dudes” (sorry dudes). That’s why in 2018 I decided to walk away from it all and focus on sharing what I know with others.
I am incredibly confident that if we work together, I can help you fundamentally change the trajectory of your career… and your life. I designed this program to be affordable for anyone to get the “executive coaching” that my company spent tens of thousands of dollars on. I designed this program to help the good guys and girls rise to the top.
I designed this program to change millions of lives. I hope you’ll be one of them.
Erin's Story
Erin is the living, breathing business case for authentic leadership.
Erin spent her career “first half” working in the corporate world, where at the age of 42, she became the CEO of a $2bn healthcare financial institution. In just 3 years, she tripled earnings and sent employee engagement skyrocketing.
And just when things were going great, she decided to walk away so that she could help solve what truly breaks her heart: the immense lack of authenticity and happiness in Corporate America.
Now the founder of b Authentic inc, Erin is provoking a movement to eradicate the all-too-fake Corporate environment by inspiring and enabling an army of people to crush their career, without compromising everything else.
Erin is a prolific speaker, thought leader, and edutainer. She has spoken in front of thousands, is a regular contributor to Business Insider and several industry-leading publications. She also cohosts an offbeat career and leadership podcast, b Cause with Erin & Nicole. She is a CEO, wife, mother, coach, runner, MBA, and a Running Man enthusiast.
